"Becoming a “tea person” can feel daunting. Strainer versus gaiwan? Does that temperature-programmable kettle really matter? Simplify the process slightly with these sachets of Té Company’s flavorful Taiwanese teas." - Bettina Makalintal
"Te Company specializes in Taiwanese mooncakes with a soft, white, flaky, rounded crust that’s different from the Cantonese versions featuring intricate patterns. Opt for three different fillings: sweetened mung bean paste, red bean paste with salted egg yolk, or buttery mung bean paste dotted with black truffles. Pre-order them online." - Caroline Shin
"Taiwanese-American co-founder Elena Liao sources directly from small farmers in the mountains of Taiwan, where terroir encourages intense aromas and flavors, as compared to sea-level leaves. Pair any of those oolongs with a sweet pineapple linzer or a flaky, buttery sesame bun." - Caroline Shin
"Does sitting in a relaxing zen tea room inside a West Village townhouse sound like the perfect Saturday afternoon? Say no more. Té Company serves up to 30 different kinds of teas alongside a light lunch menu and baked snacks. Taiwanese-American owner Elena Liao and her husband Frederico Ribeiro founded Té Company a decade ago to help drive awareness of premium Taiwanese teas and make them more accessible. As you might’ve guessed, “Te” means tea in Taiwanese and was decided as the name because it’s a connection to Liao’s family and lineage from Fujin. Try a pot of the wild chrysanthemum herbal tea for a calming and lightly sweet flavor and definitely grab one of the very popular pineapple Linzer cookies." - esther cho, with warm welcome, kenny yang
"This three-month subscription from Té Company includes both a curated assortment of Taiwanese oolongs and treats like pineapple linzers to pair with the tea’s delicate notes. Té Company also offers tea-only (and treat-only) subscriptions." - Amy McCarthy
